Jimmy Buffett died at the age of 76 and the world spent the weekend remembering the singer known for his beachy lyrics, music and attitude.
Word of the “Margaritaville” singer’s death emerged Sunday with details reported that it happened at his home in Sag Harbor, New York, near the Hamptons, according to the Associated Press.wrote: “It seems that so many wonderful people are leaving this world, and now Jimmy Buffett is one of them. I’ve known Jimmy for some time and found him to be one of the kindest and most generous people. I remember once on holiday when I had forgotten to bring my guitar and was itching to play.
Right up to the last minute his eyes still twinkled with a humour that said, ‘I love this world and I’m going to enjoy every minute of it’. So many of us will miss Jimmy and his tremendous personality. His love for us all, and for mankind as a whole. Last, but not least, is his songwriting and vocal ability. If someone made an interesting remark he repeated it in his gorgeous Louisiana drawl and said, ‘That’s a good idea for a song’. Most times it didn’t take too long for that song to appear.
